We actually ended up here twice during our visit to Minneapolis. It has a good variety of options,…read morequite a bit of seating both upstairs and downstairs, and is relatively quick. It does have British pub type food as advertised along with some other things. It does get busy and can be a bit loud but they have enough space that the tables are at least not on top of each other so that really helps with the noise level. I had the split peas because you just kind of have to have a true British thing at a place called Brit's pub and the cheese toasty. The toasty was really the winner here - to be somewhat expected, but wow, nice and crispy and cheesy! On our second visit I had the fish and chips which brought back memories of being in the UK. You can't go wrong with a visit here.

Visited here on a Sunday while Pride and the World Cup was going on. The Canada match hadn't…read morestarted yet so the place wasn't too busy. When we entered at 12:30pm, the host told us that it was too late for breakfast since I was keen on some variation of a full English. Was surprised that they had stopped serving breakfast or brunch given the weekend. The menu still had a lot of variety although the prices were higher than expected. I thought it might have been a World Cup markup but checking the website today showed that they were consistent. Then again the website didn't show any breakfast options either so maybe they just don't serve breakfast. Ordered the fish and chips. The portions were large but should be given the $28 price. The batter was malty but had a weird aftertaste. Maybe it's the oil. Our waitress was nice.

A few quibbles, though: first, I felt the pizza was a little light on the added protein/veg toppings and heavy on the cheese, making it feel unbalanced (I'll definitely ask for less cheese next time); second, the beer menu is short on darker options; and third, the bathroom was unclean and a bit foul-smelling on the night I was here. Now that expectations are calibrated, I'm in a position to enjoy it more next time... p.s. The Canadian in me appreciates that they offer shrimp as a topping! (Not 100% sure this is actually a Canadian thing, but I think of it as such)

It was a good volume, which was nice because I feel like trivia is often either too loud or too quiet. I was shocked about how long it was! 3 hours! But if I had known coming in, it would have been easier. The bar itself was cute. Love how they lean into the Irish vibe. The whole portion of the menu that was "hair of the dog" cracked me up! I got the veggie burger with fries (or chips) and wasn't super impressed. I think I am just over veggie burgers falling apart when I'm paying so much money for them. The cucumbers mixed with the spicy sauce on it was interesting though!

George & The Dragon is a super cool restaurant that my hubby and I tried for a double date night…read morewith our friends. We came on a Monday night at 6:15pm. This place does get busy so definitely keep that in mind. Luckily I made reservations ahead of time so we had a table waiting for us, otherwise we would have been put on a waiting list since it's a small space. They put us in a corner booth which was nice and spacious enough for 4 people so I'd definitely recommend asking for a booth verse a table if you're planning to come with a larger group. The servers are all very friendly and helpful. I appreciated their attentiveness and sharing what they like best, especially for what's in season based on the time of year. The menu has quite a bit of variety too which is sometimes unexpected when you come to a pub-style location. For appetizers we got Onion Ring and Fried Pickles. They were both really good and served with dipping sauces. Definitely both shareable items so if you're in a group they'd be great options! My entree I chose the Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon served with lemon soy marinade, creamy cucumbers, and jasmine rice -- it was SO good!! I loved the creaminess of the cucumbers especially with the rice and than the lemon soy marinade was just a unique touch to the salmon. Toned the flavors down without overpowering acidity. And the salmon was so dreamy, a beautiful pink color that you just knew it wasn't a farm raised salmon. Plus the portion was very generous!! I'd definitely recommend the Alaskan Sockeye Salmon to anyone interested in visiting here. #eatwildsavewild The only negatives (which are more so just knowledge bombs for you): * Restaurant is VERY loud. It's hard to hear because it is one small room that everyone plus the bar is in. I wished I would have took a picture to show what I mean. Just know that if it's an intimate setting you're looking for this is not the place. So be prepared to talk loudly over the loudness and ask "excuse me?" or "repeat that" many times throughout your visit because you're not going to hear everything. * Timed eating. Because this place is a hit with limited seating, once you get a table and complete your meal/payment you'll kindly be asked to leave so that they can clean up and open the table to next in line. Totally get that and am not put off by this at all, but I could see how it could catch some folks off guard especially if you are out for a meal with folks you may not see frequently-- so just keep that in mind. This is not the place to sit and talk post meal. * Parking is limited. Be prepared to walk a few blocks as the road parking in front of the business is pretty limited especially with the other stores and restaurants in the area. Regardless of those few bullets I highly recommend folks visit George & The Dragon. It's a really cool spot and the food was great! Plus theirs a malt shop right next door that looks yummy too, so definitely worth visiting and getting malts after for dessert.

I'd give it another shot but would try something different on the menu.

My go-to order is always the Poke Nachos. I seriously get them every single time -- either to share with a friend or honestly just as my main meal because they're that good!
